Currant Every Yogi, Ziggy Wee Cool Racerbacks and More

Also shown Angel Blue Energy Bra and Flare Ziggy Wee Astro Pants

Photo of the new X-long Cool Racerbacks in the Flare Ziggy Wee and Caspian Ziggy Wee prints. I didn't think I liked the ziggy wee pattern much - too business clothes-like - but I really like how the Ziggy Wee Caspian print looks with the Power Purple Define:

I broke down and bought the Unity pullover in black AND white! Not sure which color I loved more so I got both and I'll return one when I figure it out. OMG I really love it! I'm certainly not going to be using it over my workout clothes, though. It's gorgeous enough to wear with jeans and boots or heels, that's how I justified it! :) I found it to me TTS, although a size up still looked great. Not "sloppy" at all. I love the different materials and the way the back flows. I hated the new ziggy wee CRB's .. they were a thicker material as well. Even the staff didn't like them! I also picked up a Deep Thoughts scarf on clearance for 39.00 and the currant daily tank. I'm done for August!! :)

I am tempted to add the currant/heathered ghost/currant stitching Every Yogi L/S to my wish list, eventhough $78 seems too pricey for a long sleeve t shirt, imo! The color combo is very pretty and vibrant. I'm not too worried about the currant side bleeding/or may bleed to the heathered ghost side. When an item is made with dual colors as this, any color transfer will be considered as a "flaw" from the manufracturer's side and hence, must be taken back with no question and return shipping paid. At least, this is how I see it and I have no problem dealing with GEC with this potential issue. Otherwise, I'm ready to duke it out with them! (Honestly, I have not encountered any major issues with GEC and especially at the store level. My store rocks!) They cannot expect us to wash the two sides separately! This way, I can enjoy the pretty colors with no stress. :)

@groovegirlI actually really, really wanted the Hamburglar Scuba from last year that was only uploaded on the Canadian site. So bummed...and because of that I don't want any other Hamburglars. :( It was the Scuba Hamburlar, or bust!!! ;D

My thoughts exactly! I was SO bummed when that scuba wasn't uploaded on the US site! :-( Since the every yogi made a reappearance I will try and be hopeful that we will see the scuba! Lulu hear our cry! Ha!

@ Anon. 6:31 - I personally prefer the cabin LS tee over the every yogi LS -- only because the every yogi seems thicker and a little tighter, and is a tiny bit too long IMO. The nice thing is that these long sleeves (both) are reversible. So that's a way to justify that it's worth it!

@ yogibabe - LOL @ Scuba Hamburglar or bust! Hey, you never know! Lulu's been in the habit of re-releasing popular colors/styles lately. Just putting the request out to the universe may work in your favor (fingers crossed;).

I went into my local lulu store today and I was set on getting the red ls yogi. I tried it on and the color is not as vibrant as it seems online. I actually ended up getting the navy and white stripe. It's very gorgeous on. The red is nice but kind of blah for $78. Also I am not a fan of the oatmeal type color it reversed to. I also had to go up a size. My normal size was a little tight and I wanted it more loose fitting. I also bought the will crop. Very comfy and fit nice but I have to roll the waist band down to make it more of a low rise fit.

About Me

For 18 years I was an electrical engineer working in communications satellite system engineering. I've worked at Boeing, Booz, Allen & Hamilton, and General Electric. For the past ten years I've been a stay at home mom who keeps busy volunteering in my community and chauffeuring my three children to their activities. I live in Orange County, California.

The inaugural Sea Wheeze inspired me to take up running two years ago. I have completed ten half marathons and have three more scheduled for 2015. I mostly run these days but also go to the gym ~3-4 days a week for spin class, weight lifting, and cardio.

I discovered Lululemon six years ago and really liked the fit and performance of the clothes. I do check out other brands so if you would like me to review your product please contact me.
